I get,
cupsdReadClient: 16 Browser asked for language "he.utf-8"...
Indeed if I manually set the language id in IE6 to he-il I do get the dates localized. This requires visiting every client workstation. Moreover Firefox does not allow manual setting of the language and does not contain he-il in its list :(
I read in another thread that you consider any application that reports only the language as the locale to be "broken".
